Community:
* The development and user lists continue to stay active.
* Several ActiveMQ based presentation were given at Apachecon NA.
* The ActiveMQ community has voted to name the HortnetQ code donation ActiveMQ Artemis.
* Apache board members requested a special report to address what the plan is of the hornetq code donation. There were some specific question what were directed at the PMC:
Q. Red Hat has a product, called HornetQ, which includes a website;
branding, etc. http://hornetq.jboss.org/
A. ActiveMQ PMC does not intend to use the HornetQ branding in any code,
docs or website. The code donation has been updated to remove such
references. The HornetQ open source project is now considered a legacy
project and the code is no longer maintained as the open source project
HornetQ. The ActiveMQ community is beginning to work together to
develop a plan to take the donated code base forward and to develop
community around this code base.
Q. The ActiveMQ PMC needs to deliver a plan for:
A. Apache ActiveMQ has multiple products with multiple versions:
a. ActiveMQ - (version 5.x.x)
b. ActiveMQ ${codename} Artemis - (version 1.x.x)
This means that we are not yet ready to declare that ActiveMQ ${codename} is Artemis is the successor to ActiveMQ 5.x. We will wait until the product matures to make that decision.
Q. The current chair has been the chair for *many* years and based on the
current status and issues in the community, I would strongly suggest having
a plan for potentially replacing the chair of the project.
